Carries and Drags

CPR

CPR is a buyer of time. Having said that, statistics also show that if someone’s heart stops beating and CPR begins immediately, the chances of survival increase dramatically.

The interesting thing about bleeding control, is for the majority of cuts or wounds, we instinctively do the right thing: direct pressure and elevation. In most instances, providing direct pressure on a wound and elevating it above the heart will control the bleeding.
Personal Protective Equipment “PPE”

While not a “procedure”, one thing you must always have available to you is personal protective equipment (PPE). Safety glasses are also a good idea. Your eyes provide a direct route into your bloodstream, as does your mouth, so consider keeping a surgical mask or two in your kit/bag/car/etc. Other things to consider are hearing protection, work gloves, sturdy footwear, a medical gown, and weather appropriate clothing.
